Aronyak Ghosh: The International Master Extraordinaire
Meet Aronyak Ghosh, a chess wizard whose journey from humble beginnings to the revered title of International Master has been nothing short of spectacular. Armed with a FIDE title and a keen mind, Aronyak has blitzed through ratings like a knight on a mission, reaching peak bullet ratings that would make Magnus Carlsen do a double take (well, almost).
Rating Rollercoaster & Style
Starting in 2016 with a modest bullet rating around 1400, Aronyak soared to a staggering 2976 by 2025. Not just a one-trick pony, they juggle blitz (peaking at 2996) and rapid formats with ease — and if you want to try your luck in daily games, expect a mature (and nearly undefeated) opponent there too.
Known for a stubborn endgame prowess (they love their endgames almost as much as their morning coffee), Aronyak combines deep tactical awareness with a healthy dose of comeback magic, boasting a 70% comeback rate after falling behind. Whenever they lose a piece, don’t count them out just yet — there’s a 54% chance they’ll claw their way back.
Winning Streaks and Legendary Opponents
With the longest winning streak reaching an impressive 36 games, Aronyak has toppled giants and avoided catastrophic meltdowns with a tilt factor of just 13 (yes, even computers might find this calmness enviable). Their favorite hour to strike? The magical 19:00, when the stars (and pieces) align.
They’ve tangled repeatedly with notable opponents like subhayan2092 and bm_on_icc, often emerging victorious, while also sharing a curious 0% win record against some (Magnus, anyone?). But hey, everyone loves a challenge!
Openings: The Mysterious "Top Secret"
Legend has it Aronyak’s openings are so mysterious that “Top Secret” isn’t just a strategy — it’s their entire repertoire! With over 4,000 games in bullet under this enigmatic banner, boasting a solid 56.5% win rate, it seems secrecy is the best opening after all.
A Glimpse at Recent Battles
Their latest victories showcase finesse and nerve, such as skillfully handling the Horwitz Defense and the Symmetrical Double Fianchetto Defence in the English Opening, leaving opponents wondering what just happened. And when the rare loss happens, it’s a graceful nod to worthy adversaries, often with brilliant positional struggles in the King’s Fianchetto Opening.
Beyond the Board
Whether facing bullet or blitz, Aronyak’s games are a thrilling ride filled with sharp tactics, strategic depth, and the occasional sprinkle of humor (rumor has it the player once resigned after realizing they forgot to castle... twice!). Calm under pressure and delighting fans with an ever-expanding chess arsenal, Aronyak Ghosh continues to climb the echelons of the chess world — always with a "Top Secret" move waiting up their sleeve.
"In the game of life, as in chess, sometimes you have to sacrifice a pawn to checkmate your doubts."
